Hi,

The updateData() updates data asynchronously when using EnableAJAX.

The btnSave_Click postback event is fired early than updateData() on server side. So, we have to invoke updataData() synchronously on client side. The issue is resolved now.

Please modify ‘btnSave’ tag as:

grid.updateData(false);


grid.validateAll();


var btnSave = document.getElementById(“ctl00_mainContent_btnSave”);


btnSave.click();


grid.ajaxcallpath = acp; // restore EnableAJAX

} //if

}//Update

Hi,
It’s been long time since I post last. I’m currently using aspose.cells.gridweb licensed version 2.5.3.2001. Receiving some constant complains from our client:

  1. The page is too heavy due to the components script files even though the size of the excel is very small.
  2. Doesn’t works well in ajax mode and its buggy.
  3. Selecting one cell and then start editing, it doesn’t take the first key stroke as its for entering the cursor to the cell.

and few others…

I downloaded the latest trial version 2.7.6.2000. Is there any massive improvement on the latest build regarding the point mentioned above? If so I’m planning to buy the license ASAP.

Thanks.

Wahid

Hi,
I'm now testing the new version you suggested. But I've one important query. GridWeb.ModifiedCells contains a collection of WebCell. Is there any way to get the corresponding sheet name of the modified webcell?

Thanks.

Hi,
The latest version doesn’t work as it crashes to load a simple excel file.

For “Sheet Name with modified cell (s)”, I didn’t get any solution following link you provided. I need this urgent. Can you help?

Thanks.
Wahid

55

Hi,

The sheet name should be active sheet name of a gridweb control e.g

GridWeb1.WebWorksheets.ActiveSheet.Name

56

Hi,
Thanks. Modified cells problem solved. Now I need a link to latest stable release of the component. Also please provide the latest acw_client folder with latest scripts. After having a quick look I’m going to buy the license.

Thanks.

Hi,
Can you provide me the link to buy the license? The old license which I was using for GridWeb_Version_2.5.3.2001. And it worked for Aspose.Cells_Version_5.1.4.0 component also. Should the new license will work for the cells component also?

Thanks.
Wahid

Hi,

Thanks for your posting and using Aspose.

Please contact Aspose.Purchase for purchasing license.

If your license date has not expired, then you can use the new component without any problem.

License date expires after 1 year from the date of your purchase. You can check the license expiry date by opening your license in a notepad.

But if your license date has expired, you will have to renew your license subscription.

Hi,


"The old license which I was using for GridWeb_Version_2.5.3.2001. And it worked for Aspose.Cells_Version_5.1.4.0 component also. Should the new license will work for the cells component also"

Yes, Aspose.Cells for .NET is a complete package that includes Aspose.Cells library and Grid Controls (Desktop + Web). If you purchase or upgrade the new license e.g Aspose.Cells.lic, it will work for both Aspose.Cells.dll (library) and Grid controls (GridDesktop + GridWeb).

Thank you.
